International Women’s Day is a worldwide event that celebrates women’s achievements – from the political to the social – while calling for gender equality.It has been observed since the early 1900s and is now recognised each year on March 8th.The original aim – to achieve full gender equality for women the world – has still not been realised. A gender pay gap persists across the globe and women are still not present in equal numbers in business or politics. According to the World Economic Forum, the gender gap won't close until 2186.On IWD, women across the world come together to force the world to recognise these inequalities – while also celebrating the achievements of women who have overcome these barriers.SHE'S NOT JUST A PRETTY FACE By, Shania Twain

Lyrics

She hosts a T.V. show, she rides the rodeoShe plays the bass in a bandShe's an astronautA valet at the parking lotA farmer working the landShe is a champion, she gets the goldShe's a ballerina, the star of the show

She's, not, just a pretty faceShe's, got, everything it takes

She has a fashion lineA journalist for "Time"Coaches a football teamShe's a geologist, a romance novelistShe is a mother of threeShe is a soldier, she is a wifeShe is a surgeon, she'll save you life

She's, not, just a pretty faceShe's, got, everything it takesShe's, mother, of the human raceShe's, not, just a pretty face

Oh, oh, yeahOh na, na, na, naShe is your waitress, she is your judgeShe is your teacherShe is every woman in the world

Oh, la, la, laShe flies an airplaneShe drives a subway trainAt night she pumps gasolineShe's on the council, she's on the boardShe's a politician, she praises the Lord

It's celebrated on January 30th every year, on the Anniversary of the death of Mahatma Gandhi.Click on the picture : ALONE, WE CAN DO SO LITTLE;TOGETHER , WE CAN DO SO MUCH !!!

This is the song we' re performing at the Assembly for School Day of Peace and Non-Violence on 30th January.

The Peacemaker Song :This is a great and fun sing-along for children of all ages to learn about getting along and being peacemakers at school, in the classroom, and on the playground.

Bucket fillers' are those who help without being asked, give hugs and compliments and generally spread their love and good feelings to others. There have been numerous studies which demonstrate the positive effects of kindness on health and well-being.

The kindness giver, receiver and even those observing the kind act immediately experience an increase in happiness, a blissful sense of euphoria, increase in energy, more optimism and a general feeling of being healthy .

Children who learn about compassion, respect, empathy and how to express acts of kindness in both words and actions, can have a positive impact on the world they live in.

It is proven that young children raised to understand the value of kindness are less likely to bully or even become violent.

Rememberyou can make a difference each time you brighten someone's life through small efforts like a smile, kind word, saying thank you or showing you care.
